In the last century, China's self-defense and counterattack war against Vietnam was quite relieving. All of a sudden, he subdued the white-eyed wolf of Vietnam, and from then on he saw that we had to walk around.
Having said that, the international situation at that time was very complicated, and our self-defense and counterattack against Vietnam was, after all, a state-to-state military operation, and the attitude of various countries in the world was still very interesting.
There are those who are openly opposed, such as the Soviet Union and its group of younger brothers. There are ambiguous, such as the United States and its little brother. However, only one and a half countries have publicly and unequivocally expressed their support for our country.
Which countries exactly?Why say one and a half?Let's talk about it.
In fact, they are talking about North Korea and Cambodia.
As for being a semi-country, just because Cambodia was invaded by Vietnam at that time, the regime has been beaten to the ground, and only a small half life is left.
But half a life is a life, and a regime in exile is also a legitimate regime, so it is still half a country. It can also be said that if our country did not launch a counterattack against Vietnam at that time, Cambodia would have choked enough.
In fact, why Cambodia supports our country, it goes without saying, it is being beaten by a hooligan, and suddenly a righteous person comes to help, if it does not support it, unless it lacks heart.
Let's talk about why North Korea supports our country.
When it comes to the brotherhood between China and North Korea, it was very pure at the time. Especially in the fifties of the last century, our two countries fought side by side to repel the aggression of US imperialism, and this friendship was even stronger.
Second, our military action is also justified in self-defense, not aggression and expansion.
Therefore, in 1979, when China fought a self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, the DPRK did not hesitate to choose to stand on our side and expressed its support in a dignified manner, without any ambiguity.
But then again, just out of buddy friendship, North Korea probably won't do it. Between countries, what is important is that there are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
The DPRK's statement of support for China must also be based on the actual interests of its own country. But it also does not detract from the friendship between our two countries, which is already the case between countries.
Speaking of which, I have to scold Vietnam, it is really a white-eyed wolf!What benefits did we not give it back then?During the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Vietnam, it not only provided a large amount of money, food and materials, but also sent engineers and technicians to help them build many project facilities.
The result?As soon as people leaned on Su's father, they began to cause trouble on the Sino-Vietnamese border every day, and they shot and beat our people when they had nothing to do
Our country has also been on the battlefield countless times, and the country was built on the smoke of war, defeated little Japan, defeated Lao Mei, are you still afraid of a little Vietnam?Children can't get used to being naughty, and they should be spanked!
This time, China resolutely organized forces to fight back, and taught Vietnam a lesson and made it clear that China is not something to be provoked.
However, our purpose is very clear, that is, to combat Vietnam's arrogance and defend national sovereignty, and we have absolutely no intention of invading other countries.
But the international repercussions of this incident are a bit subtle. The Soviet Union took the lead and immediately condemned us and demanded that we withdraw our troops.
This group of people shouted blindly one by one, and when they looked like that, they rolled up their arms and sleeves, and they almost joined the battlefield directly. But what about the reality?None of them dared to really send troops, and they were happy for a long time.
It is not difficult to understand that the Soviet Union at that time was in a hurry for itself. If the incident that has just been provoked in Afghanistan has not been properly handled, how can we have the energy to take care of the affairs of China and Vietnam.
Besides, Sino-US relations are easing, and if it really wants to help Vietnam, it is afraid that it will provoke the United States, and if the US imperialists join the battlefield, the matter will be big, and this is not in the interests of the Soviet Union, and it is estimated that it will not be able to bear the situation at that time.
Speaking of the United States, this buddy's reaction is also very interesting. It stands to reason that it should be happy to deal with Vietnam, its former enemy.
But its whole attitude is rather ambiguous, and it has not clearly expressed its support for China, but it has not objected
Although the counterattack against Vietnam was short-lived, the results were enormous. Not only did it completely break Vietnam's ambition to dominate Southeast Asia, but it also made it difficult for the Soviet Union to engage in any more tricks, thus creating favorable conditions for peaceful development in Asia and even the whole world.
It can be said that we have fully achieved our strategic goals.
The Vietnamese have learned a lesson since then, and they dare not provoke us casually!
